Earlier this morning, New York GOP Rep. Elise Stefanik’s campaign issued a statement on the deadly mass shooting in Buffalo over the weekend. The statement included not just remarks from Stefanik herself, but also from senior adviser Alex DeGrasse:

DeGrasse is no doubt referring to hit pieces like the Washington Post’s, which tried to draw a direct line between Stefanik’s social media posts and the Buffalo shooter’s professed racism.

Dude hated Conservatives and Libertarians, and identified as all sorts of Leftist labels (communist, socialist, populist, fascist, etc.).
